I think what you have done is a bitmap screen capture of an interlaced 
stereo image generated by DepthCharge. It will work on any computer 
that has a video display in interlace mode and a set of synchronized 
LCS glasses. It is a common format. The stereo web galleries that 
I maintain include a separate option of viewing in interlace mode 
for people who have LCS glasses but don't have DepthCharge. I've 
considered using interlaced stereo images to create a completely 
3-D environment for a web site, but it is too easy for people to 
get pseudo stereo (you get pseudo if the image starts on the wrong 
scan line, thus the web browser might be shifted up one pixel and-- 
pseudo everything-- ouch). 

I look forward to viewing your gallery.  :)
